6-speed for CGT???

[Alan Kramer]

I've found that 4k at 80 is desireable with a sensibly modified street 
motor.  The schrick comes to life in my car at 4k, so it's nice to press the 
gas at 80 in 5th and still have the car want to get up and  go somewhere...  
  ...and with the right mods you too can brag to your friends that your car 
hits the rev-limiter in 5th!
